Wide-Area Energy Storage Management

This project develops principles, algorithms, market integration rules, functional design and technical specification for the Wide Area Energy Storage and Management system (WAEMS), helping to cope with the wind generation resources intermittency and unexpected fast ramps by recycling the excess energy, controlling other generation, and inter-area exchanging the energy imbalance between the Bonneville Power Administration (PBA) and the California ISO control areas. The project provides a cost-benefit analysis and develops a business model for an investment-based practical deployment of such a system.
